Meet the Cambridge woman who was born in a concentration camp

The photos of Eva Clarke and her mother Anka Bergman just after she was born could be of any mother and baby in the world. They show a beaming mother embracing her newborn child.

But the circumstances of Eva's birth were far from joyful. Eva is one of three people still living to have been born in a Nazi concentration camp.

When she was born, Eva weighed just three pounds; her mother, five stone.

Anka had been a fun loving student in Prague. She married Eva's father, Bernd Nathan, in 1940. When the Nazis sent him to Auschwitz she followed, unaware of the horrors it held. She was pregnant with Eva at the time. But she never saw Eva's father again - he was shot just a few days before the camp was liberated.

In 1945 Anka was transported in a coal truck to Mauthausen: a notorious concentration camp in Austria. It was there that she gave birth to Eva.

After the war ended and the camps were liberated, Anka remarried, and she, Eva, and Eva's stepfather made a new life in the UK. Anka lived to the age of 96.

When Eva tells her mother's story to school children around the country she always shows them a picture of four generations of the family together; a family which would not have existed had the Nazis had their way.

When she shows the photo she always says the same thing: "we won"

Even though it happened 70 years ago, Eva's story has never been more relevant:

Suffolk author Wendy Holden took up Anka's story in her book, "Born Survivors". It was launched in Cambridge this week.

There's much more to Anka's story.
